Nate Connelly released his debut album A Dream About Being Lost on December 23. This might seem a strange date to release your debut album on, but what matters is that you hear it.

Comparisons have been drawn with James Blake, apparently – but if you like the likes of Bonobo, Thom Yorke’s solo stuff, Boards of Canada and indeed much of what has been released on the Warp label, I think you’ll enjoy this,

The video for ‘You Echo’ deals with the ‘controversial issue of Bath Salts abuse’ (can’t say I know much about it, but it is a rather wonderful piece of music and a good, if rather disturbing video).

This, meanwhile, is the album’s opening track:
